NJ is easily one of the best states. The location in proximity to NYC, Philly and New England is appealing. Of course it helps if you have money to have fun
Lived in Jersey for a couple of years. Worked in Summit. Lived in an historic farmhouse in Flemington. Loved it. The estates in Bedminster were mind blowing.
I think it’s safe to say that New Jersey is one of the richest states in the nation. Missed many towns down here in South Jersey. Moorestown, Haddonfield should have been on this list. Taxes are insane. Many of these house have taxes close to 6 figures
Were number one on the list of property tax. Moorestown and Haddonfield are more expensive based on property tax. Not the homes themselves. I drive through Haddonfield everyday and sometimes deliver in said area. One person said it's not as it seems.
This is why I choose to stay. As rough as it gets in January, April and October are some of the prettiest months ever. Summer is fun for everyone but the weather here really looks like a movie sometimes 🍃
See jay - High properly taxes obviously mean more to underperforming easily manipulated gullible weak minded Fox Viewers than it does to anyone living in the towns mentioned in this video.
@@skillman46 What an asinine thing to say. Maybe you are not up on NJ politics, but Phil Murphy.....a Democrat, won by the skin of his teeth in the Governor's election. Maybe you are also unaware of the party affiliation of almost half of New Jersey and are unaware of where they live?
I moved from NJ to South Fla 43 years ago, and that has been a horrible mistake. I grew up in Newark, NJ, which at that time had one of the top high school, Weequahic High. Many of my classmates went on to hold some of the most prestigious jobs in the the country. Living in NJ is quite expensive; however, incomes in NJ far exceed the incomes in Fla. People in NJ are much more friendly that they are in South Fla, and you do not need to speak Spanish in NJ to land an excellent job. People in NJ who come from foreign countries have to learn to speak English in order to secure a good job, and most of the foreigners in NJ are proud to be American and learn the language of the land. My father lived in Europe until he came to the US at the age of 16, and spoke perfect English, since he was a proud American, and loved this land, and had respect for the native language of the land. The violent crime rate when I grew up in NJ was almost non existent. The educational system in NJ is far superior to most states.
I lived on Lyons Avenue in 1968 through 1970. The dark pigmented humans were taught to hate the hard working European immigrant class so we moved from the racist culture to freedom and crime free areas. Weequahic had aleady been turned into a cespool and the hardworking Jews ran to south orange and Livingston by then. LBJ went after Addonizio…but who was the real scum criminal?
I worked for the Superior and Supreme Courts in Trenton, NJ and traveled for work. I moved away from NJ because the crime rates were skyrocketing. I miss NJ and will always cherish my memories but I don't think I'll ever move back. Blessings to all in love and light! 🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💙🙏🏼🧡🙏🏼💛🙏🏼💚🙏🏼
lol you just showed ridgewood I live in ridgewood. And the house you showed in ridgewood is right down the street from me. And btw you showed the restaurant Stella best restaurant ever!!!!
This video misses the mark. No saddle river? No rumson, No Mendham, or Far Hills? Those places are richer than many if the towns mentioned, no one talks about Tenafly, it is the east hill and Saddle river is richer.
Just gonna say. Northern jersey is thier stuff. Those of us who grew up in most awesome farm lifestyle. We loved it. Ending in the late 70"s early 80's. Looking back at it I understand the family outlook. However I'm sure I'm just pulling in my own hometown directly connected. Warren county. Rt 512 Stewartsville. Effective 1996. New York. Uppermost New Jersey and even everyone who wants everything. Small little county. Christe Whitman wrecked the county. 1986. Just saying. Do the research 🤔
Love Tabernacle NJ the pines and fishing camping spots near the shore LBI beach love ladies Beach Haven . If you love the pinelands and out doors and close to the beach town of Long Beach Island. Cool spot Tabernacle New Chatsworth New Jersey Indian Mills New Jersey shamong NJ
An EXTREMELY important fact about almost ALL if not, ALL these areas is the TRUTHFUL FACT--- 95% of the owners of these homes --- DO NOT AT ALL--- work or own businesses in New Jersey! The overwhelming percentage work on Wall Street and commute to New York city, but don't WANT to live there! If they don't work on Wall street they OWN businesses in New York city! There is a HUGE number of athletes( mostly Mets and Yankees) that live in -- Short Hills-- so, these places are money from New York!!! Lastly, you should have ADDED --DEAL and Rumson-Fair Haven, those are extremely wealthy! They are down the coast Near Sandy Hook! ALMOST ALL those people ALSO own businesses in NEW York or DO commute into NY to work on Wall Street!(yes, ALL the way in by train)-- The train takes you right to Madison Square Garden, then its just the subway to Wall street!
the problem with NJ is the property taxes. no other state comes anywhere near the amount we pay in here. Wishing you good luck in getting out :D I'm doing the same this year
@@Jerseybytes2 Yeah, the property taxes are ridiculous here. I have a great job and I’m still living with my parents. I’m saving as much money as I can and I’m going to a different state. Plus, I don’t like the weather here and the Jersey shore is one of the most overrated things ever. Its nothing more than plain simple beaches. Idk why everyone says the Jersey shore is the thing to do around here. Honestly, I don’t even know what to do around here because every where is the same boring flat wooded areas and most people that live here are total crabs and jerks. It’s hard to come across normal people with common sense. Anyways, good luck with moving out haha.
@@trophy8174 can't tell you how many times I was asked if I watched the jersey shore. At first I didn't even know it was a tv show. I did know the whole going down the shore was over rated and expensive. These days I don't even go to the city... and by these days I mean these years. I think I went there a grand total of 3 times in the past 20 years Only advantages we have in Jersey is, we don't pump our own gas and the pizza is great :D
None of these!! Washington Township & Haworth are working class neighborhoods. Saddle River has REAL money, Upper Saddle River is “new” money. Homes are much smaller & cheaper in Upper Saddle River
I agree. Most people especially people traveling from the Midwest only see the industrial zones and generic parts thinking that it’s NJ. So when they return home back to their state they have a distorted view and tell others how ugly the state is.
@@MJH211 Hey Mark, considering buying house in FL now. Heard FL is very affluent with low taxes. Also looked at Wyckoff, Montville, North Caldwell. What's Your opinion? Thank You!
Bogus list : where are Peapack , Bernardsville or Bedminster? BTW: New Vernon is incredible and the epicenter of old money. Some of the estates are shown in books of the great houses with architecture and design that no longer exist today.
Maybe because the population of those towns is a lot smaller and you have lots of farm and farmland to take into account? I grew up in Bedminster 1985-2003 and went to high school in Bernardsville 1994-1998 and went to church in Peapack 1985-1998. As an adult I lived in Short Hills, Millburn and Livingston 2004-2020. My take now at age 41 is that there is a lot of money out where I grew up but a lot more people with a lot of money where I spent my adult life. Just seemed like a population thing. At 41 I now reside in Naples, Florida...lots of old money from NJ floating around these parts.
The reason they're not included is because they are second homes and their income is recorded at their year round home. Deal which is probably one of the wealthiest in the country is not recognized as such because most live somewhere else off season.
There is lots of poverty in Morristown. Brings down the numbers. People in the towns listed are also the people who own the shore houses in towns like Brielle.
When my parents had our house built in Holmdel & we would be playing outside cars would drive by on weekends. Sometimes they’d stop & ask how much did your parents pay for your houses? Early 70’s.
South Orange, hometown of Harvey Weinstein, Montclair, West Orange, and probably the obviously richest Livingston, Paramus and little towns around it are super rich
@@loujohn6067 West Orange and South Orange may be ghetto-adjacent but not Montclair (even though all are nice towns themselves). Montclair has been having major bidding wars even before the pandemic and it’s next to impossible to get a house there. It’s extremely popular with the Wall Street and artsy Manhattan elite.
Mendham Borough (Colonial Hills Conference) back in the day, Mendham Twp., Bedminster, Bernardsville, Tewksbury, Far Hills. I remember when it was rumored that Arnold Schwarzenegger was looking at an estate in I think Mendham Twp. over on the Ralston side when Maria Shriver was considering a gig at one of major networks in NYC. Many moons ago.
I remember driving through Jersey once when I was in high school and we went through Saddle River and I thought “wow! This is where I want to live when I’m rich”. I’m surprised it didn’t make the list.
You're referring to Chatham Township, not Chatham Borough - but you're photo was Chatham Borough. Agree on Summit, Rumson. What about Mountain Lakes, Mendham Township, Cresskill, Bernardsville, Far Hills, Spring Lake, Deal, Loveladies (last three Jersey shore towns). Also, Short Hills is not a separate municipality - it's a section of Millburn Township.
Yes Short Hills is part of the Millburn Twp however, the housing value and income in Millburn are less than half of those in Short Hills, so they’re certainly not equivalent.
@@sherrie5124 I live three miles from Millburn/Short Hills. Short Hills (zip 07078) has larger lots and a higher top end for homes at 3-8MM. In area it's about 2/3 of Millburn. The Millburn portion that is not Short Hills (zip 07041) has very high home values - top end about 2mm and an average close to 1mm. Excluding Short Hills, Millburn would rank in the top 10 in NJ for home values. On a per sq. ft. basis - a more valid way to measure home values - Millburn is perhaps 10% less than Short Hills but in the top 5% for all of NJ. As for income - Millburn has many high income professionals in the 200k to 1mm+ range - Short Hills has the same and greater but not double. Regards. JBN
Alpine: Ballers and Wall Street types, big-home enclaves but not much else Short Hills: Fancy Jews and old blue-blood; home to the Borghese family, fancy mall Princeton: Intellectuals and Pharmaceutical Execs and Princeton U, nice downtown Tenafly: More Jews and NYC news personalities close to NYC Chatham: Brooklynites turned Lululemon Mom-town easy access to NYC Kinnelon: Asian haven, lots of private lake communities hard to get in to Ridgewood: More Brooklynites and townies with money' easy access to NYC, nice downtown New Vernon: Looks nice, have no clue about it along with most people in NJ Franklin Lakes: Real Housewives Of NJ land (no, for real) Watchung: good central location to all major points in and outside of NJ, with views of the entire island of Manhattan as well. Watchung Reservation makes it nice and woodsy
New Vernon is the epicenter of old money and one of the wealthiest areas in the country - and beautiful to drive through. The town is rich enough that residents prefer anonymity.
I'm really surprised Englewood Cliffs isn't on here. The houses there are beautiful and it's literally like 10 mins away from the city. Also Fort Lee is a pretty rich town also
The homes in EC are definitely nice but the lot sizes are pretty modest; and there are also a decent amount of regular houses. Most of the newer homes are also overly-flashy/gaudy - which turns off many of the old money/classy buyers and appeal mostly to new money.
I grew up in Closter and thought that we were "good" until friend of a friend of a friend invited us to this girl's house in Alpine for a casual hangout. I realized then just how poor and mediocre we were.
You missed a lot of towns That the super wealthy live in 1. BernarsVille 2. Deal 3. Colts Neck 3. Rockleigh 4. Rumson 5. Berkely Heights 6. Upper Saddle River. 7. Mendham 8. Englewood Cliffs 9. Fort Lee 10. Morristown / Morris Plains 11. Montclair 12. Livingston The best part of NJ is not having any subways like New York And I might add I think we can pay all the taxes for this Nation and a few other countries just on how packed we are in N.J.
You should have mentioned Deal NJ.
Along the Atlantic Ocean. So many mansions.❤️
I’m really happy to hear someone talk about NJ positively. I’m also just happy the mentioned Morris county so I could see my town on the map lol
Wasn't surprising because Morris county is the 7th richest county in the country.
Hey Joey my name is Joey Ruggia I'm from South Jersey lol
NJ is easily one of the best states. The location in proximity to NYC, Philly and New England is appealing. Of course it helps if you have money to have fun
What about Rumson, Deal, Colts Neck, Moorestown. Everything mentioned was up North.
Rumson is really exclusive
Westfield and summit
Yes exactly
Yea Deal is crazy
Spring Lake
Lived in Jersey for a couple of years. Worked in Summit. Lived in an historic farmhouse in Flemington. Loved it. The estates in Bedminster were mind blowing.
Could add about another at least 30 towns off top of my head that boast homes and incomes in the millions
No you can't
not one would be on that alpine level
Thank you for sharing those communities. However, Saddle River, Upper Saddle River, and Mahwah townships would qualify as well.
Totally agree
And Montclair
Saddle River especially. :) !!
How about Alpine and Norwood, they are great towns also
Haddonfield, Cape May, Ocean City, Avalon Beach, Voorhees Township (where MOST of the Philadelphia Sports Athletes Live) & Cherry Hill Township
Upper Montclair definitely deserves an honorable mention
And Clifton around the Vally road Grove St area.
@@michaelmohrle1773 yes I am very happy to have grown up there
My husband is from Ridgewood. It’s really beautiful and has a very lively downtown area
A good friend of mine lives in Ridgewood, I fell in love with the town when visiting my friend.

Haddonfield should've DEFINITELY been on this list.
How about bernardsville I know for a fact there’s very expensive homes there because I’ve worked on a number of them.
Bernardsville was much wealthier a couple of decades ago. I went to high school there. It is a very very nice town.
Bernardsville also has the south side of the tracks which is high density middle class housing which brings down the average housing price.
Mansions in Bernardsville are on their own level 🤩
I used to live in Princeton...I Miss it sooo much!! Shoutout to my peoples in Griggs!!
Harding, Warren, Bernardsville, Peapack Gladstone, Montclair, Llewellyn Park West Orange, Madison
Also, you forgot south Jersey towns like Loveladies in Long Beach Twp. There's a damn Taj Mahal house there lol.
nj is my beloved state I love bc of the four seasons I don't care what others talk negative about nj

This is why I choose to stay. As rough as it gets in January, April and October are some of the prettiest months ever. Summer is fun for everyone but the weather here really looks like a movie sometimes 🍃
They missed saddle river with 14.9 million houses for sale rn

I’ve passed by that blue house in watchung so many times, is it owned by a celebrity or something?
What about shore towns like Avalon?

Is it true that New Jersey has some of the countries most beautiful women? If so, you should mention it in one of your videos. 👍

Yes Short Hills is part of the Millburn Twp however, the housing value and income in Millburn are less than half of those in Short Hills, so they’re certainly not equivalent.
@@sherrie5124 I live three miles from Millburn/Short Hills. Short Hills (zip 07078) has larger lots and a higher top end for homes at 3-8MM. In area it's about 2/3 of Millburn. The Millburn portion that is not Short Hills (zip 07041) has very high home values - top end about 2mm and an average close to 1mm. Excluding Short Hills, Millburn would rank in the top 10 in NJ for home values. On a per sq. ft. basis - a more valid way to measure home values - Millburn is perhaps 10% less than Short Hills but in the top 5% for all of NJ. As for income - Millburn has many high income professionals in the 200k to 1mm+ range - Short Hills has the same and greater but not double. Regards. JBN
@@jeffnoss8188 you
Yeah!!!! Deal NJ
Not include a single town in Monmouth County isn’t correct. Reevaluate the list and look at Rumson, Colts Neck and Deal
Alpine: Ballers and Wall Street types, big-home enclaves but not much else
Short Hills: Fancy Jews and old blue-blood; home to the Borghese family, fancy mall
Princeton: Intellectuals and Pharmaceutical Execs and Princeton U, nice downtown
Tenafly: More Jews and NYC news personalities close to NYC
Chatham: Brooklynites turned Lululemon Mom-town easy access to NYC
Kinnelon: Asian haven, lots of private lake communities hard to get in to
Ridgewood: More Brooklynites and townies with money' easy access to NYC, nice downtown
New Vernon: Looks nice, have no clue about it along with most people in NJ
Franklin Lakes: Real Housewives Of NJ land (no, for real)
Watchung: good central location to all major points in and outside of NJ, with views of the entire island of Manhattan as well. Watchung Reservation makes it nice and woodsy
You should do a video, I like your descriptions better
You're spot on!!!!!
Haha I was thinking the same thing as I was watching this video. Except New Vernon. Never even heard of that place!
Never knew that about Kinnelon
New Vernon is the epicenter of old money and one of the wealthiest areas in the country - and beautiful to drive through. The town is rich enough that residents prefer anonymity.
I'm really surprised Englewood Cliffs isn't on here. The houses there are beautiful and it's literally like 10 mins away from the city. Also Fort Lee is a pretty rich town also
The homes in EC are definitely nice but the lot sizes are pretty modest; and there are also a decent amount of regular houses. Most of the newer homes are also overly-flashy/gaudy - which turns off many of the old money/classy buyers and appeal mostly to new money.
me too
Yes I agree
Yea isnt EC richer than tenafly?
@@Josy8289 I would've thought. I been through both Areas a good bit and EC definitely looks wealthier.
Don't sleep on Englewood, South Orange, and Montclair
I live in South Orange
Englewood Cliff, yes
I grew up in South orange, beautiful area.
Facts I'm surprised Englewood Cliffs wasn't on here.
I was born and raised in East Orange.I Love my city
That list is outdated what about the shore house? Stone Harbor vacation home Lowest 1.75 million
Cresskill and Rockleigh NJ also
I grew up in Closter and thought that we were "good" until friend of a friend of a friend invited us to this girl's house in Alpine for a casual hangout. I realized then just how poor and mediocre we were.
Lol
Mendham, Colts Neck,Rumson, Bayhead,,Mantoloking,,Deal,,Bedminster,Gladstone and so many more beat the listY Alpine is top but the rest
Sea Girt and Spring Lake
Essex Fells? Stone Harbor? Camden? (just kidding on that last one!)
How does Watchung make this list over Bernardsville lol
No Walmart in Bernarsdville, thus Watchung beat it.
You missed a lot of towns That the super wealthy live in 1. BernarsVille 2. Deal 3. Colts Neck 3. Rockleigh 4. Rumson 5. Berkely Heights 6. Upper Saddle River. 7. Mendham 8. Englewood Cliffs
9. Fort Lee 10. Morristown / Morris Plains 11. Montclair 12. Livingston
The best part of NJ is not having any subways like New York
And I might add I think we can pay all the taxes for this Nation and a few other countries just on how packed we are in N.J.
